In this camp we will work to develop the Keepers of the Future. Teaching every player how to properly play the position by working on the fundamentals of Set positioning, hand placement and of course diving!!! We will incorporate fun filled drills to bring excitement back to the Goal keeper Position.

In this Summer Clinc Series we will focus on developing proper Goalkeeper technique. Each week we will focus on a specific area of Goalkeeping from the WCWAA Goalkeeping Curriculum. We will cover all aspects of playing Goal keeper from Footwork, to Set position, and proper hand placement.

In this Summer Clinc Series will continue to work on technique as covered in Summer Clinc I and apply it to more realistic GK situations. We will focus more on the shot stopping aspect of the position, and movement as it relates to game situations, as well as developing good habits, and developing quicker instincts on when to hold or perry a save, when to attack or hold ground in a 1v1 situation or when to come out and take crosses.
